My darling daughter, when did you grow up? Where did the time fly?

Tomorrow, my precious gem, you begin a new journey of marital bliss

Oh! What a strong, confident woman you have become from a girl so shy.

 

As I gaze at you, I’m overwhelmed with love and a tear trickles from my eye

Anxiety does my heart squeeze; an unknown fear that I valiantly try to dismiss

My darling daughter, when did you grow up? Where did the time fly?

 

Oh! My silly heart be quiet, hush; it’s time for her to soar and touch the sky

With her albums, her memories; my moist eyes will sit and reminisce

Oh! What a strong, confident woman you have become from a girl so shy.

 

You, who would cling to me like a shadow, will tomorrow bid me good bye.

Laughing and crying, all at the same time, I promise to bless you and kiss

My darling daughter, when did you grow up? Where did the time fly?

 

I know your fingers from my grasp will slip, as you join hands with your guy

My heart will crumble when you throw back the rice, it will leave an abyss

Oh! What a strong, confident woman you have become from a girl so shy.

 

I promise to fill the chasm in my heart, remember you with fondness and not cry

You’ll understand, when life comes a circle and with your daughter you do this

My darling daughter, when did you grow up? Where did the time fly?

Oh! What a strong, confident woman you have become from a girl so shy.
